Realistic Gameplay?

I'm sorry, but this is exactly how and why everyone says the game is rigged. I greened a catch in double coverage, and the ball literally warps into the WR’s arms.
Then, three plays later during a goal-line stand, my DT runs directly into the QB and doesn’t even attempt to tackle him.
Stuff like this makes it really hard to believe the outcome isn’t being influenced by animations or scripted sequences. When you can make the right read and have the timing down, only for the game to override it with an animation, it completely defeats the purpose of skill-based gameplay.

  • Had three more instances of the same issues. CPU god mode, while user-controlled defenders just stand there and do nothing. CBs are switching assignments for no reason in man coverage.
    I really hope something gets fixed soon with these issues. This is hands down the worst game I have ever seen made. Settings still turn themselves on and off. It’s extremely apparent that the AI in the background completely controls the outcome and even overrides settings.
    I’ve had instances where illegal man downfield has been called even though the penalty is turned off in the game settings. How does that even happen?
    At this point, ratings and user gameplay seem to have zero impact on the outcome.
